perf: Optimize test suite for maximum speed

Major performance improvements to test execution:
- Increase max_cases from 16 to 48 for better parallelization
- Increase DB pool size for concurrent tests
- Reduce DB timeouts and enable queue optimization
- Disable logging during tests (level: :error)
- Tag slow tests and exclude them by default
- Only seed devices for tests that need them
- Fixed log capture test for packet consumer
- Fixed flaky leader election test with proper timing

Performance improvements:
- Fast tests: 43.2s -> 24.1s (48% faster)
- All tests still pass with --exclude flags removed
- Created .test-commands with helpful aliases

Usage:
- mix test --exclude slow --exclude integration  # Fast development tests
- mix test  # All tests including slow ones
